Re: [time-nuts] Foucault Pendulum...

The Griffith Park Observatory in Los Angeles has a Foucault Pendulum in the main rotunda at the entry to the observatory building. I'm guessing that its support point is about 40 feet above the bottom of the pit where they have little pins in a holder that are knocked over as the earth

Hi How much room do you have for the pendulum? Size is going to impact the choice of designs quite a bit. Bob -Original Message- From: time-nuts-boun...@febo.com [mailto:time-nuts-boun...@febo.com] On Behalf Of Morris Odell Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2010 11:21 PM To: time-nuts@febo.com

Re: [time-nuts] Pictic II boards are here !

Can someone please send me information on ordering programmed PICs? It seems I arrived at the Pictic II party a bit late (I really need a better clock) and digging back through all the messages has me lost. I've only recently joined time-nuts and searching archives isn't easy. Thank you so

[time-nuts] GR 1115B

Hi A GR 1115B seems to be headed this way. I have no idea what condition it's in. About all I have been able to find is the GR news article on the unit from 1961(?). Does anybody have a schematic or manual? Thanks! Bob ___ time-nuts mailing list --

[time-nuts] A Highly-Accurate and Stable SDR Using GPS-DO and DFS

My latest project is a general coverage radio receiver (SDR-IQ), tuning from very high audio frequencies (like bats) to 30 MHz in one-Hertz steps -- locked to the GPS constellation. The dial is a 24 color monitor connected to a laptop showing 190 KHz window of the band like a spectrum analyzer.

[time-nuts] A Highly-Accurate and Stable SDR-IQ Using GPS-DO and DFS

I have been involved with many kinds of radio receivers for over fifty years -- amateur, military, and commercial. This modified SDR-IQ is a dream come true. When I was a young ham, I dreamed of the day when I might have a receiver that would read out to one kilocycle (before we used the term

Re: [time-nuts] A Highly-Accurate and Stable SDR-IQ Using GPS-DO and DFS

If you want an HF radio that reads to a Hz, ready made, get a used HP (Agilent) 3486 Selective Level Meter. It covers essentially DC to either 20 or 30 MHz. It has a good internal ovenized oscillator, and can be locked to an external standard. A virtually unique feature is that it will lock onto

I picked up an old black bakelite phone in an antique shop and have it nicely on display on a table. I have wired it through to my workshop where it is connected to the old Australian speaking clock (sync'ed to the GPS of course). So when you pick up the phone you hear: At the third stroke it
